On every game day this season, THN Fantasy will highlight players and goalies for fantasy hockey managers to stream, roster or utilize in standard leagues and/or DFS games. Players and goalies highlighted for streaming in standard leagues are rostered in less than 50 percent of Yahoo leagues.
Adam Fox, NYR vs. CLM (93% rostered) - FanDuel $6,500
Fox played in just 30 of the Rangers' first 57 contests due to a pair of injuries that sidelined him for extended periods. The Olympics break allowed Fox sufficient time to heal, enabling the team's top blueliner to return to action last Thursday. Fox was snubbed for the Olympics and has seen the Blueshirts start the sell off, though neither has materially impacted his numbers. He has posted 28 points in 32 games, nine of which have come on the man advantage.
Thomas Harley, DAL @ VAN (84% rostered) - FanDuel $6,000
Coming off 47 and 50 points, respectively, the past two seasons, expectations were raised for Harley this season. Unfortunately, he has been suffering through a difficult campaign. Harley showed signs of coming out of it before the Olympics, notching five points in the five games prior to the break. He has continued that success forward now that play has resumed, posting three assists in his last two contests.
Shayne Gostisbehere, CAR @ SEA (84% rostered) - FanDuel $6,800
Ghost's fantasy value historically has greater than his real life value due to a good percentage of his production coming on power play. That has not been the case so far in 2025-26, as Gostisbehere has added offense at even strength. Gostisbehere is up to 10 goals and 31 assists in 42 contests with only 14 of those points coming on the man advantage, down significantly from the past few seasons.
